There's that sunset again. Anything looks good with that in the background But some things look better than others. Nice focus on the edge of the tower, Chris.

 

[Hamish Gill]

You and your lifeguard towers ... You should compile them!!

 

[Milan Vjestica]

Maybe Chris is a closet Baywatch fan!

Nice work again Chris, the picture that is!

 

[Ahmad Bhai]

Just needs a Babewatch

 

[Pete Askew]

Very nice Chris. It has a very 'end of the summer' feel to it.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Thanks chaps

Rob - true, it's a great backdrop for photography - would be lovely light for car shots I'm thinking....

Hamish - this had occurred to me as I keep shooting them, and they are rather iconic for this area

Milan - Mmmmmm David Hasselhoff

Ahmad - I've looked and looked, and I've yet to see a curvy model-like lifeguard - usually just a scrawny looking youth with acne

Pete - it does does't it - devoid of people, and the rail and deck are a little beaten-up

Here you go Hamish - one more, taken from the other side of the road yesterday

 

[Brian Moore]

Beautiful, Chris. (And so are the lifeguard towers! lolol)

 

[Beth Carter]

love the your first and third shots, your second shot is just scary. personally, i would have deleted that one on the camera.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Thanks Brian - I knew you'd be a fan of the Hoff

Beth - sorry, should have posted a NSFW warning on the thread
